Green jade

A variant of Blue velvet shrimp (Neocaridina davidi)

Green jade

Representative Blue velvet shrimpphoto — a dedicated image of this exact morph isn't available yet.

A jade-to-emerald green line that is harder to fix than red or blue because green pigment expression is unstable and temperature-sensitive. One of the more recent designer lines.

Keeper tips for this variant

Hold the tank in the low-to-mid 70s F (22-24 C); warmer temps fade green individuals toward olive, so this line rewards a stable, slightly cool setup and aggressive culling.
